Description
## Feature Request
### What problem are you trying to solve?
Currently when sorting in the http metrics view by i.e. largest P99 latency, rows which have no value for this metric are placed above the highest value row. This makes it sometimes hard to see the actual highest value since you have to scroll down until you reach the actual highest value. See the attached screenshot for an example:

### How should the problem be solved?
Treat these rows as below-0 values in the sorting and place them at the very bottom of the page when sorting for highest value in any given column.
### Any alternatives you've considered?
There is no alternative ;-)
### How would users interact with this feature?
Don't scroll, get information right away ;-)

Research direction
Start by locating the Dashboard/UI code for the HTTP metrics view and its column-sorting behavior, then check whether sorting tests cover rows with no metric value. Done means descending sorts place no-value rows below all valued rows for every applicable column, with tests confirming the behavior.
